My students Iphone Game

One of my students has producted an amazing Iphone shooter which I wanted everyone to see and of course buy, to encourage him.

There's a review here, which will link you to the game if you feel the urge to buy it.

I'm not normally a fan of virtual controls, mainly because it's mostly messed up - but this is done very well, very well indeed.

My only gripe would be the rotation of the players ship, I'm guessing it's a sprite due to it's limited rotations? If it's not I'd suggest smoothing out the rotation. But I'm nit-picking, it really is extremely well done

Part time about 9 months, while at the same time doing well with his studies.

He has done an excellent job and kept it under wraps till it was nearly done before going to get opinions and play test from his colleagues.


Fugly...ermm well from a manly mans opinion, he's an acceptable looking young man, but I can't comment on his girl attracting prowess....probably spends too long in front of a mac to get any

That looks very cool - uber kudo's to him, I'll definitely grab a copy despite it not being particularly a genre I'm usually attracted to ...

A dual stick shooter, for a platform with no sticks. Interesting design decision.

Probably more of a fan of that genre..there are a few geometry wars type games on the app store and clealry its popular. I notice a lot of hobby games reflect the makers preferences for play rather than sound design decisiosn.

He did a damn good job of it though.

I like it - reminds me of mutant storm, but it does suffer from not having a physical interface. I think there's maybe a bit too much in terms of UI on the screen as well, but overall very polished and good looking! Plays nice too
